Senior Iranian military and government officials have a plan in place to respond to an Israeli attack on the country’s nuclear facilities, an Iranian official tells the New York Times, amid reports that Israel could strike in the coming days.
The official says the plan involves an immediate counterattack of a similar scope to the attack it launched in October 2024, when it fired a massive salvo of close to 200 ballistic missiles at Israel, sending the entire population into bomb shelters.
The majority of the missiles were intercepted, although a Palestinian in the West Bank was killed and two Israelis were injured by shrapnel and debris.
Iran has also warned that in the event of an attack, it would hold the US responsible alongside Israel, and would target its forces in the region.
